A woman has survived for 45 minutes without a pulse after complications from a cesarean section, it has been revealed. A team of doctors spent three hours trying to bring Ruby Graupera-Cassimiro back to life after she suffered a rare amniotic fluid embolism after the birth of her child. Doctors were preparing to pronounce the 40-year-old's death and had even called her mother, husband and sister into the operating room and told them there was nothing more they could do. But then her heart started beating again. Thomas Chakurda, spokesman for Boca Raton Hospital, said: "She essentially spontaneously resuscitated when we were about to call the time of death."
